Dr.Dave Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Buy Hipshot de-tuner Find that Hipshot de-tuner has too short a shaft for the model M/C it's advertised as being a replacement for. Moan to Hipshot in email and mention you'll spread it about on a Bass forum Follow advice in reply and send detuner back to Hipshot for lengthening Receive back, lengthened, only days later...... .....complete with Hipshot T shirt and baseball cap !!!!!!!

ped Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Dr. Dave is not property of Hipshot Products, Inc., 8248 State Rte 96, Interlaken, NY 14847. Please refer any questions to the said member via the web form at [url="http://www.hipshotproducts.com/contact.htm"]http://www.hipshotproducts.com/contact.htm[/url] I have a Marleaux T and cap and copious amounts of stickers... also Vigier T shirts, Rotosound T shirt (dunno why, use it for painting), a Bassdirect polo and sole Line6 stuff... most of it was sent free by various contacts, so no harm in asking someone. I also got a massive Ritter basses 'seal' rear window sticker on my old volvo which totally obscured rear vision which was quite cool.

waynepunkdude Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 I don't think Fender or Trace Elliot would let me wear there shirt as it would reflect badly on the product in fact I'm waiting for the phone call from Trace asking me to cover up the logo on my amp.

Dr.Dave Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Few years back my mates and I blagged our way in to the trade day of the London Guitar show - Trace had the best promo T shirts ever , bright green and pink on black. They were only for the demonstraters at the show but they said I could have one if I wore it right there and then. I chucked my (blagged) Bass Centre T away and put it on. My fave T shirt ever - sadly it got nicked along with the rest of my luggage from outside Manchester Airport. I never buy T shirts because folk give them to me. Other bands , shops etc and I get them as presents. I'm such a scruff I think folk feel sorry for me and give me clothes !! I'm not allowed to take my ZZ gear home in case I wear it to emulsion a ceiling or something , so the guitarists missus launders it for me. I just seem to ruin clothing. Record for a T shirt is minus 10 seconds. I unwrapped it (a pressy) took mine off to try it on and when I went to pick the new one up I'd tipped a tandoori marinade all over it - the turmeric stained it yellow.

I believe Marco and the team are working on some stuff currently but no announcements have been made yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peted Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I've got a Warwick baseball cap which I bought from the Bass Centre, but you can get all sorts of Warwick appareil direct from their website [url="http://www.warwick.de"]http://www.warwick.de[/url] I've got a buddy who works in a music shop and they get free T-shirts off of the distributors when they are trying to pimp their gear.

xilddx Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I'll probably lose a few friends over this, but why in heaven's name would you want to wear them?? That stuff looks really uncool, IMHO of course. The only thing I ever bought was a RUSH thong for my lady, as a joke, naturally. She can't stand RUSH so she's never worn it and thank god for that! I don't want to be thinking of Geddy Lee when I'm visiting that region ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krysbass Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 A bit like Marmite perhaps (you either love it or hate it) but Ashdown do a good selection of wearables on their website and the t-shirts are pretty good quality.

Finbar Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Wouldn't mind a Shuker shirt, but Jon told me he only has them in large. I am not a large. Therefore, no shirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
